The question is how should we call those investment scams. "Musk schemes" would be more logical, but maybe "Holmes schemes" sounds better?

#DidYouKnow: #SpinLaunch is a #Spaceflight #Technology development company working on mass accelerator technology to move payloads to space. It is developing a kinetic energy space launch system that reduces dependency on traditional chemical rockets.
If successful, the acceleration concept is projected to lower the cost of launches and to use much less power, with the price of a single space launch reduced by a factor of 20 to under US$500,000.

Nur dann sollte die Sicherheit auch sehr sehr hoch sein. Alternativ zu Raketen mit chemischen Antrieben, wäre eine Ăśberlegung #Spinlaunch zu verwenden, sobald die mal soweit sind.

Ein Test einer Zentrifuge, die irgendwann Zeug ins All schleudern soll.
Kamera sitzt im "Geschoss" und filmt den Flug.
